Activities
At sea, on land,
or even above it, Phuket's remarkable range of sports, tours,
diversions and adventures guarantee a fun-packed holiday for all.
In the water or out, the Andaman Sea
and Phangnga Bay offer an unrivalled selection of watersports,
including deep-sea fishing that would give Hemingway a thrill,
and snorkelling and Scuba diving that would take Cousteau's breath
away. There is also sea-canoeing into spectacular hollow island
escarpments and enchanting yachting experiences that have not
only made these waters world famous, but also helped make Phuket
one of Asia's premier yachting destinations, with yachts from
every continent represented in the bays and marinas of the island.
On shore, Phuket's thrills and adventures
are just as numerous. Gallop gracefully across the sand on a horse
from one of Phuket's several riding stables, or take a trek into
the island's jungles aboard an elephant. Hike through the primordial
forest of Khao Phra Tieow, or mountain bike along the winding
hill roads. Play 18, 36 or 72 holes of golf at any of the four
world-class golf clubs, or putt a little easier at the Mini-golf
park in Kata. Take a leap of faith at the island's Bungy Jump
centre or - if speed is your thing - roar around Phuket's Go-Kart
track.
In fact, with so much to do on and
around Phuket, booking a longer stay may be advisable - just to
give yourself time to fit it all in.
